My mom drinks it daily with soursop juice, she’s on a parp inhibitor and has not had any issue if that helps

Run it by your oncologist if your not sure. Sue x

Definitely ask oncologist. Many fruit juices are CYP 4 inhibitors which affect metabolism and can make your treatment stay in your body longer and therefore increase the side effects.

Been told NOT to take it as it interferes with chemo. X
